Joyful Motherhood in a Rural Family-Chapter 430 - : Revealing the Pregnancy

Chapter 430: Chapter 430: Revealing the Pregnancy

Unable to go against Liu Sisi’s strong stance, Ms. Yao left with the lantern, looking back three steps at a time.

As soon as Ms. Yao left, Liu Sisi’s entire body seemed to have its backbone removed, and she could no longer stand firmly, her body collapsing.

Frightened, Di Yelei hurriedly and chaotically held her up: “Sisi, Sisi, what’s wrong?”

“Mom! Mom, what’s wrong? Mom…”

Little Ying from the side also cried and stepped forward, shaking Liu Sisi’s hand.

Liu Sisi had a hard time catching her breath, her face extraordinarily pale. She stretched out her hand and held Di Yelei’s hand, whispering.

“Tell me… why does my own mother still… show such favoritism?”

Di Yelei’s expression darkened, tightly holding Liu Sisi’s hand. Although her words were only half-spoken, he understood the meaning behind them.

She was talking about the conflict between him and Ms. Zhao. Ms. Zhao was, after all, a stepmother, which could be explained. But on her side, it was her own biological mother!

“Sisi, do you remember what you told me? You said that the fate between people is certain, and gaining and losing have always been equal. You lost that home but gained our current one. You lost those relatives, but gained the sincere treatment of me and the two children. You are not at a loss!”

“Yes! I am not at a loss, haha…”

Liu Sisi laughed, but while laughing, she began to cry again.

Di Yelei did not know how to comfort her, so he held her tightly in his arms, lightly patting her back, and silently accompanied her.

Elderly Mr. Di led the children away in silence and gave the couple some alone time.

Wiping away her tears, and looking back frequently, Little Ying asked Di Xuan puzzledly, “Brother, what do you think why does grandmother want to hit mom? It was clearly uncle’s fault, so why did she hit mom?”

Di Xuan was silent for a long time, “I don’t know either.”

That night, while Liu Sisi was asleep, Di Yelei made many lanterns overnight – baby rabbits, small fish, puppies, kittens, lotuses, Guanyin… various kinds of lanterns filled a table.

When she woke up in the morning, Liu Sisi silently picked up these lanterns one by one, examining them carefully.

Finally, she picked up a carp-leaping-over-dragon-gate lantern and did not let go for a long time.

Ms. Yao yesterday also had an identical lantern…

She sighed, perhaps she ultimately had no fate with parents? Her previous life’s parents left early, and this life became like this. Once she let it go, her heart would not hurt anymore!

“Mom, you’re up! YingEr got up earlier than you today, even Cousin got up to eat.”

Little Ying ran over, bouncing and jumping happily, and pounced into her arms. fгeewёbnoѵel.cσm

Liu Sisi cheered up, hurriedly hugged her, “What about you? Have you eaten?”

“No, mom, YingEr is waiting for you to get up and eat together.” YingEr hung on her arm and rubbed against Liu Sisi as they walked toward the kitchen.

In the kitchen, Di Yelei was not there. Only Elderly Mr. Di was sitting by the bonfire adding charcoal. Meanwhile, Old Cheng was on the side, digging into the fire pit, pulling roasted sweet potatoes out of it. Despite the hot and dirty conditions, he directly put them into his pocket, quickly accumulating several.

“Old Cheng, is there not enough food? If it’s not enough, just let us know, and next time, we’ll cook more.”

Liu Sisi picked up the bowl and began to scoop rice, casually speaking as she did so.

“Madam, rest assured, there is plenty of food. I’m already used to it. These yam eggs are delicious and filling. Whenever I’m hungry, I just eat a couple, and they keep me warm. Hehehe!”

Old Cheng continued to work non-stop, picking up two more sweet potatoes and putting them in his pocket as he spoke.

Liu Sisi helplessly shook her head, not saying anything more.

“Madam, if you don’t need anything else, I’ll be off to do some work.”

Old Cheng pointed outside.

“Alright, you go do your work.” Liu Sisi naturally didn’t keep him.

It must be said that since Old Cheng entered the Di Family, he had taken care of feeding the chickens and rabbits in the courtyard. He seemed to particularly love horses, not only taking care of the carriage horse but also caring for Di Yelei’s jujube red horse. He spent more time in the stable than in the house.

As Liu Sisi ate her meal, Elderly Mr. Di next to her took out his pipe, intending to light it. However, seeming to remember something, he put the tobacco leaves back and just held the empty pipe in his mouth.

“Many families value sons and belittle daughters. Third Child’s daughter-in-law, don’t be upset about it.”

Liu Sisi paused in the middle of picking up food, realizing that Dad was trying to comfort her.

She forced a smile and continued to eat silently.

When they were done eating, Little Ying leaned over and said, “Mom, Dad took Brother out for a walk.” As she spoke, she pouted.

“Your brother is going to school soon, so it’s normal for your dad to take him out for a walk. Be good! Let’s go, today I’ll take you to Sister Guihua’s house!” Liu Sisi patted her head.

In the meantime, she looked back at Elderly Mr. Di, “Dad, I’m taking YingEr to Guihua’s house. If we come back late, please eat lunch first.”

The weather was cold, but the bonfire kept burning, and with the stewed meat and cooked rice, they wouldn’t go hungry.

Seeing Elderly Mr. Di nod, Liu Sisi led YingEr out the door.

The snow seemed to have stopped today, and although it had been snowing for many days, the accumulated snow was not as thick as the previous heavy snow.

Mother and daughter each held a wooden stick and walked slowly towards Guihua’s house. When they arrived, Guihua was busy pounding rice at home.

Upon seeing them, her face lit up with surprise, “It’s Sisi! Oh dear, the road outside is slippery. How could you still wander around alone in your condition? What if something happened?”

From surprise to concern, Guihua hurriedly came over to help her sit down.

“Sister Guihua, I’ve been to your house so many times, and you’re worried about this little distance?” Liu Sisi found it funny.

Guihua replied seriously, “It’s not the same. Can you compare your previous body to now? Oh! By the way, how many months pregnant are you? You seem to be showing already, and your body is getting rounder.”

As she spoke, Guihua deliberately examined her belly and waist closely.

“You really think my body has gotten rounder? Not like a water bucket waist, right? Is it true?”

Liu Sisi’s face turned into a crying one, imagining a plump pregnant woman in front of her, and suddenly felt that pregnancy wasn’t so wonderful.

“Of course! You can really tell you have a belly now. Before, your waist was so thin it seemed like it would snap if you pinched it, but now look, it’s rounder, and your face has some meat on it too, which makes you look even prettier!”

Guihua sincerely praised, “Judging by your belly, you should be more than four months along, right? Since this is your first child, you shouldn’t be showing so quickly if you were a few months along.”
